Our Approach

Your Weight Loss Journey.

Weight concerns are often influenced by more than diet and exercise alone. Sleep quality, medications, hormones, liver health, cardiovascular risk, stress, and lifestyle factors can all play a role.

FAQs

Starting your health journey can come with a lot of questions. Here are some of the most common things patients ask before booking an appointment.

What happens during the initial consultation?

Your assessment at Cardio Metabolic Services is a comprehensive clinical evaluation of your health. It provides the foundation for a personalised, evidence-based treatment plan that supports your health in a sustainable way. We have designed your assessment to enable us to understand the factors influencing your weight, health, and wellbeing. Each client is different, so we take the time to explore your unique biology, lifestyle, and health history before making recommendations on personalised treatment.

We provide long initial appointments (up to 60 minutes) to give you the time and space to discuss your health and weight loss goals in a supportive, non-judgmental and stigma-free environment.

What to Expect:

A friendly conversation
We want to learn more about your health concerns and health goals. We will explore how long you have lived with obesity, how your weight affects your life, and have a discussion about the fundamental pillars of health—nutrition, physical activity, mental wellbeing and sleep.

Body composition assessment
We use bio-impedance analysis to provide an accurate assessment of your fat mass and muscle mass. This helps guide treatment decisions to promote healthy weight loss that targets reductions in fat mass whilst preserving muscle and bone mass.

Cardiometabolic, nutritional and hormonal screening
We arrange several blood and urine tests to assess biomarkers relating to your cardio-metabolic health and nutrition status, and review other key health markers relevant to weight and health. This includes screening for testosterone deficiency in men and menopause in women. We advise on further tests that may be appropriate according to your needs. This includes wearables such as a continuous glucose monitor, pharmacogenomic testing, and screening for specific health conditions, such as coeliac disease, fatty liver disease, nutritional deficiencies and diabetes.

Specialist investigations
We will organise specialist investigations when indicated. For example, calcium scoring and cardiac stress testing for cardiovascular disease, liver ultrasound and FibroScan for fatty liver disease, and overnight sleep studies for obstructive sleep apnoea.  

Mental health and eating-behaviour screening
We explore factors such as mood, stress, sleep and eating patterns in a respectful and supportive way, recognising the important role they play in appetite regulation and health. For clients living with mental illness, disordered eating or eating disorders, we can initiate tailored treatment through our mental health team or refer to specialist eating disorder services in Perth.

Do I need a referral?

No - You do not require a referral to book an appointment with our Specialist General Practitioners. You can book your first appointment online by clicking the "Book Now" button.

What treatment will I recieve?

Effective weight loss treatment recognises that sustainable weight loss is not simply a matter of willpower and motivation. We shift the focus from individual responsibility to shared care, following a medical model that aims to give durable weight loss and improved health outcomes.

Understanding weight regain
Traditional calorie-focused approaches to dieting may lead to short-term weight loss. However, the body adapts by:
- Slowing metabolic rate
- Increasing hunger and appetite signals

A personalised, medical approach
The treatment we recommend is always tailored to your health, goals and preferences. We do not rely on:
- Extreme dietary restriction
- Unsustainable exercise plans
- Willpower-based strategies
- Giving every person the same weight loss medication

Foundations of treatment
We provide support for behaviour change across key pillars of health:
- Nutrition
- Physical activity
- Sleep
- Mental wellbeing

Management of obesity-related chronic disease
Obesity is closely linked with chronic conditions such as:
- Cardiovascular disease
- Type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance
- Fatty liver disease (MASLD)
- Obstructive sleep apnoea
- Insulin resistance
- High blood pressure
- High cholesterol

Our medical practitioners will diagnose and treat all medical conditions alongside your weight loss treatment.

Our goal
- Clinically meaningful and sustainable weight loss
- Improved metabolic and cardiovascular health
- Reduced risk and progression of obesity-related disease
- A compassionate, stigma-free treatment experience focused on long-term wellbeing

Do you prescribe weight loss medication?

Prescription medications for weight loss may be considered for certain eligible clients as part of a doctor-supervised medical weight loss treatment plan. Not every client is eligible for prescription weight loss medication and some clients may benefit from other treatments. This is why every client receives a comprehensive clinical assessment to ensure the right treatment is provided.

Is this an online-only service?

No. CMS provides in-person consultations and comprehensive assessments at our Perth clinics.

Where are your clinics located?

CMS clinics are located in Nedlands and Murdoch, with services supporting patients across Perth and Victoria.
